April Fools PART 3
[OUTSIDE OF THE IKEBUKURO GUILD]
Your party had arrived at the famous guild of all Toshima,The Ikebukuro Guild,whose members are full blooded fighters that fight everyday at an underground coloseum of the guild, There the guiild master Claude sits on his seat watching the gladiators fight to their hearts content,hearing the cheers of the audience and basking in triumph,Ā
Harumo: Whoah!, Its huge, Is this the Ikebukuro Guild.?
Shiro: Yes,Do you not remember?,This is the place where you rescued Kengo,
Kengo: Hey!,I wasnāt rescued,You came here just to convince me to comeback to school,
Harumo: Wow, I really rescued you Kengo?.
Kengo: No,you didnāt, Hey Shiro! stop lying to Harumo.
Shiro: If memory serves, he saved you during that exception incident.
Kengo: Ahhh, Fine,You annoying bookworm.
Shiro: What was that?!.
Ryota: Hey Kengo, What do exactly have in mind to help Harumo about his memories?.
Kengo: Didnāt i tell you, We go there,Harumo is gonna fight someone,Easy peasy.
Harumo: Do i really have a saying for this plan?.
Kengo: Youāll be fine,Youāve dealt much more worse than this.
Your party waik towards the entrance doors of the large building,When stopped by the guilds trusty guard dog and questioned.
Garmr: Stopped,Why Kengo here. Garmr no like you....
Harumo: Uhmmm Guys, whoās he.?
Kengo: Oh right, Thi-
With one word from your mouth,Garmr quickly realizes heās master is here and jumped on top of Kengo and pounced at you,Licking you with excitement and tail wagging furiously to see heās master infront of him.
Garmr: Master!, Garmr missed master,Garmr wants master to pet him.
Harumo: Okay... G-Good boy?
Moritaka: No, That compliment is not for you Moritaka,you must resist the temptation, Im a proud warrior.
Toji: Inuzuka, is something wrong?.
Moritaka: No,Nothing at all.
Garmr: Wait, Why master here?.
Kengo: Harumo is gonna fight someone.
Garmr: Master fight?!,Tell Snow now......
Garmr rushed to the building to inform Snow about a fight,That everyone will not missed,You however is getting nervous from it,since youāre gonna fight someone inorder for you to summon your sacred artifact.
Kengo: Welp, Lets go in.
Harumo: Wait,already?.
Kengo: Yeah, People are gonna love it.
.
.
.
Summoners: Iāve got a bad feeling about this.
[Claudeās Office}
Claude,Guild master of the Ikebukuro Guild,Organizer of the fights on the coloseum, With the massive wealth he inherited,He build the great coloseum for his own amusement,to watch heās gladiators fight to their hearts content.There in his office he Sits on his desks looking quite bored as he reads the documents compiled on his desks,
Claude: Hm, It seems im getting quite bored with this fights, I wish a miracle would happen right now.
Snow:Darling master,I humbly apologize if the fights are adding to your boredom,Iāll negociate with some guilds to have a fight on the coloseum.To ease your boredom.
The room falls silent,....Until Garmr jumped out of the doors like a madman and quickly taiks to Snow,Whom is quite aggitated by the rude behavior.
Snow: Garmr!,What did i told you about opening doors.
Garmr:Ummm,Sorry, Master here,Said he wants to fight.
Claude:Is that so?... HAHA!,Our dear gladiator never cease to surprise us,He has saved me from this painful boredom,Snow set our gladiator to fight Macan.
Snow:As you wish darling master, Garmr lead Harumo to the a room to prepare.
Garmr:Yes Snow, WOOF.
Claude whom 2 minutes ago was bored and now back to his usual charismatic grin,Snow waiks towards the locker room where Macan is,Garmr leads Harumo to a room in order to prepare for his inevitable fight with the number 1 ranker of the Ikebukuro Guild,Macan.
Your party were waiking towards the underground coloseumn,When you were pounced by Garmr to come with him to the room for preparations.
Harumo: Wait,Im going to fight right now.Also who is it im going to be fighting.
Garmr: Master Claude said Macan.
Kengo:Youāve got to be kidding me here, Macan really is it that too much.
Shiro:Well for starters,They donāt know about Harumoās memories being lost.Though,It is a little bit too much to pair him to Harumo already.
Kengo:Little bit?!,Weāre taiking about the number 1 ranker of the guild,plus a bloodthirsty monster that literally wants to eat everything.
Ryota:Can he really eat anything?,Really?
Moritaka: I sure hope Harumo will be able to remember how to summon his sacred artifact from this plan.
Toji: Im starting to doubts in this plan of your Takabushi.
Kengo:Do you guys think i would let my partner be in harms way.
Besides im going to be his teamate in this fight,So you donāt have worry.
Harumo:Really?,Youāre going to be my teamate in this fight.
Kengo:Yeah, I promised that i will protect you and fight with you side by side.
Harumo:Pro..missed...
A sudden image appeared in your mind ,A picture of 2 hands shaking as a sign of deal,Appeared on Harumoās mind. The scenario was a bit shaky and Harumo was in a state of blank in reality.
Ryota:Uhm,Harumo? You okay?.
Harumo:Oh, Yeah, I just ......remembered.. something.
Shiro:What is it?.
Harumo:Hm,...Ah,Its a bit blurry,But i saw ...two hands shaking.
Shiro:Two hands? Shaking?.....Hm
Shiro: It appears to be a memory youāve lost.
Ryota:Does this mean heās starting remember something?.
Shiro:It appears so, And i hate to say this but.....Kengoās plan might actually work.Ā
Saying does words almost made Shiro puke for the fact that Kengoās plan is acutally working,Ā
Moritaka:Shiro are you unwell?.
Shiro:N-no,its nothing, Its just disturbing to me.
Ryota: Donāt worry Harumo will be cheering for you as loud as we can, So be c-careful o-okay.
Harumo: Yeah, Iāll try my best.
Kengo:Lets go partner,See you later guys.
Moritaka: Give it your all you two, Fight valiantly.
Harumo:See you later guys.
As both of you departed you and Kengo went to the preparation room,Your friends went to the audience to find a good spot to watch your upcoming dangerous fight,With the intent of remembering how to summon your sacred artifact.
Now inside the locker room of the bersekers,the room is fume with the smell of sweat and blood from the gladiators who simultaniously take turns fighting one another in pairs, There Macan is seen punching a sandbag and ripping it to shreds like a vicious beast who got his prey, Snow enters the room to inform Macan about his upcoming match whom he doesnāt know who is going to be his next prey,Ā
Snow: Hello gladiators, I would like to inform Macan about his upcoming match today,Ā
Bathym:Hey Snowy, Macan is going to fight today?, Whoās his next prey,
Nomad:If youāre wondering where that idiot is,His over there chewing the sandbags again.
Ikutoshi: Macan doesnāt normally have matches, So whoās going to be his opponent.
Snow: AH, Thank you,Ā
Bathym:You didnāt even answer my question.!
Snow waiked towards Macan,Chewing and ripping the sandbag and other furniture he could get his hands on, You can tell by the number of broken benches and stuffing layed on the floor beside him, There Macan didnāt notice Snow approach him.
Snow:Macan,I would like to inform you about your upcoming match,
Macan:*Chewing* Huh iāve got a match today, Whoever it is iāll pass iāl just that sucker up,They have to be juicy you know.
Snow: I assure you your opponent will do you nicely, Because your opponent will be....Harumo.
The room falls silent,The rankers shocked and Macan stopped chewing the ripped sandbag,His eyes widen, Macan breaks the silence by.
Macan:WHAT?!.
Bathym:Harumo is here?, And heās gonna fight Macan,WHOOOO this is going to get nasty.
Ikutoshi: Harumoās gonna fight this bastard, But not me, Whats going on here.
Snow: We donāt know exactly,But as long as my darling master Claude is happy,Then i have questions to asks.
Macan:HAHAHA!,That guy has a lot of guts,I like it,I can finally devour him and heāl be mine.HAHAHA.
Macan grits his teeth in excitement,The bersekers are intrigued and a bit suspicious about it, Horkeu Kamui, The 7th ranker happens to have arrived at the coloseum, Whom doesnāt know his beloved hero is here aswell,everyone of the rankers arenāt fully aware about Harumo losing his memories again,So they couldnāt help but feel excited since Harumo is admired by everyone he comes across with.
Horkeu Kamui:.....
Horkeu Kamui waik towards the halls of the guild to ask Snow about his upcoming match.Ā
{PREPARATION ROOM}
Inside the room escorted by Garmr,You and Kengo both discuss about your strategies and coming up how to target his weak spot ,But...
Kengo:Hey partner?,You okay.?
Harumo:Kengo,...Are you sure iāll be able to get my memories back?.
Kengo:What do you mean?
Harumo:I mean...What if..I canāt remember everything.
Kengo:To be honest with you....Im not entirely sure whether this will help.
Harumo:What?!,Then why did youĀ
Kengo:Its because i want you remember the times we fought side by side!.
Kengo:I ask Shiro about this and he said.
[FLASHBACK]
Shiro:I get that you plan to have him remember the times you fought together, But there is a high possiblity this wonāt work.Ā
{END OF FLASHBACK]
Kengo: Whatever that nerd says, I donāt care, I promised that will fight side by side and im not gonna let you fight this on your own,BECAUSE Weāre PARTNERS REMEMBER!,
Harumo:Part....ners
A sudden image again appeared on your mind,This time an image of a large transient infront of you and there was someone by your side ready to fight with you, And a quick flash of someone kissing you,You couldnāt make who it was because you saw the scenario with from your front.But the person closely resembles someone very familiar to you. And another scenario where the person whom fought with you said the word.PARTNERS!.
Kengo:ahh.Hey Harumo ,You okay there?.
Harumo:Oh. Y-yeah its nothing.
Kengo:Alright then,Lets go,Are match is coming soon.
Harumo:Wait?!,Really!?..
Kengo:Yep, Just remember if you canāt handle him,lure him to me,.
Harumo:O-OKAY.
Your friends were waiking on the halls of the guild finding the audience section to watch your match,feeling worried and nervous about the fight that you will fight unharmed, Ryota canāt hide his worrying.
Ryota: IM REALLY WORRIED OF HARUMO!.
Shiro:Thaa,Ryota donāt shout all of a sudden,Im more worried than you right now, I sure hope that idiot knows what heās doing,If this plan fails then Harumo wonāt remember anything at all.
Moritaka: Friends,calm yourselves, Kengo will protect Harumo if he gets into trouble, So donāt worry about at it all, What we should be focusing on is supporting them,rather than making them worry for us.
Toji: I trust Takabushi will protect Harumo if he ever gets in a pitch, Moreover the guildmaster thinks highly of Harumo yet he doesnāt know that he lost his memories.
Shiro: We should tell Claude about this,
Moritaka: I think his office is right around this corner,wait.........Its Snow!.
Your friends runned towards Snow, to inform his about your memories being lost.
Moritaka: Greetings Snow, its been a while hasnāt it.
Snow: Yes, Greetings Summoners, Youāve certainly are an unpredictably guild, asking for a fight all of sudden, May i ask why.
Shiro: Allow me to explain Snow...Ahem.,..Harumo has lost his memories.and were trying to get them back.
Snow:My word!, How unfortunate,I terribly apologize,Moreover are you all inform about his opponent?.
Ryota: Yeah, Heās going to fight Macan right?
Snow:Correct, You see my darling master Claude was feeling bored at that time,When Garmr informed us about Harumo wanting to fight,In his excited state he couldnāt resist to match him with Macan,Also..... Im very grateful to you summoners.
Snow takes a bow to the summoners as a sign of gratitude to them for making his darling master Claude happy,
Shiro: Well, Your welcome,But...... i do hope Harumo might remember something from this.
Snow:May i ask why?.
Ā Shiro:You see ..Harumo has fought on the coloseum before, And weāre wondering if he fought again on the coloseum,He might remember something from the time he was in the Ikebukuro Guild to get Kengo back.
Snow: I see, I pray for your success, Be rest assured,If Harumo is badly beaten,our medical staff will treat him quickly as possible,
Snow takes a quick bow to the summoners and waiked towards the door behind you all. And....
Ryota:BADLY BEATEN?!.
Ryota can help feeling even more worried from Snowās words,Heās getting really nervous about his friend whoās going to fight someone big and scary.
Moritaka: Ryota, Do not worry yourself,Ā
Ryota: How could i not worry?,..Harumo is going to fight someone really scary.And he lost his memories and doesnāt even know how to fight. So excuse me for being the worry wart here.
Toji: Ryota Yakushimaru, How long have you known Harumo,?
Ryota: What?.....Uhm....Months now.
Toji: In those months,Harumo has fought all his life with or without us, Yet he came out victorious and still smiling. Even if he lost his memories,Im sure heāl find a way to come out okay from this. He has done it before havenāt he.?
Moritaka: Toji is right Ryota,He has fought like a great warrior all this time,He gives everything heās all in every fight and heāl never give up until the end.Ā
Shiro: I full heartedly agree,When Harumo and i fought during his first day at school we caused that exception incident,He never gave up in the face of danger,Even when i was weak and cowardly,He brought me back up and bring my spirits up,So im sure heāl not give up on this one.
Those words speak words of fact and deep appreciation to the one friend who has shown out of nowhere, Whom Has become a great influnce to every person he comes across with,He has fought for his friends and even strangers even,But thats why he fights. Because every stranger he comes across with has become like heās own family ever since being summoned to this strange world,Because those strangers are the only ones he got,To prevent from being alone on this strange Tokyo.Ā
Moritaka:I know youāre worried,all of us are,But worrying wonāt help him,The one thing we can do as heās friends is to give him our unwaverving support to him.Ā
Moritaka,Toji,Shiro,Spoke out the words Ryota needs to hear inorder to easy his worriying,And it has worked,He is still a little worried but the not kind of worry before.
Ryota: Y-Youāre right guys, Harumo is going to be fine.He has Kengo by his side,So iāll try not to worry to much,
Moritaka:Thats the spirit,Now lets go to Claude to inform him about Harumoās condition.
Snow:May i join with you aswell,
Moritaka:Yes you ca-......aH,When did you get here?.
Snow:My apologise,i came to get some tea for my darling master,When i heard you all taiking awhile ago,Iāl glady escort you all to Master Claude to inform him, And, you will have the best sits to watch them.
Ryota:Really?!, Thanks Snow we really appreaciate it.
Snow:Now shall we be on our way then?
Summoners:Yeah!.
They joined Snow to meet with Claude who is sitting at the best sits in the entire arena,Ā
[PREPARATION ROOM]
The room both of you are in falls silent as you hear the cheers of the audience reach towards you even though the walls are supposed to be sound-proof, Signing Macan has already arrived at the arena, Kengo gestures you to get ready and get up to waik through the door and go through the halls leading to the arena.
Harumo: Here we go!.
Both of you head towards the halls and are met with audienceās eyes with a look sayingĀ āyouāl be deadā,You brushed it off and head towards the arena were Macan is surprised with eyes widen,His teeth griting and starting to drop saliva,like a vicious hungry predator had found his prey, Taurus Maske{AKAĀ Daisuke from Yoyogi Academy} will be the commentator for the match, And as always heās hyperness makes him worthy of being a commentor for this match.
Taurus Maske: ARE YOU READY PEOPLE!, IT IS I TAUUUUURUUUUUSSSS MASKE!. Im going to be your commentator today and im would like to thank I Guild master for this match, Here we in the red corner The bloodthirsty Lion of the Ikebukuro guild MACAN!,Ā
Macan:*ROARS*
Audience: YEAH!, MACAN!,
Harumo:*whispering* Whoās he Kengo?
Kengo:*whispering* Thats Taurus Maske, Heās also a ranker and a very hyper fighter, BUT Heās strong.
Taurus Maske: And the blue corner we have a pair fighting our champion today,Ā Harumo and Kengo!,
Claude: Hold it!.
Everyone: HUH? *Wondering*
Claude: As the Guild Master of the Ikebukuro Guild,......... I would like Harumo to fight Macan alone.
Claude as the Guild Master has superior authority on his members and also the power to decide whoās fighting who whenever he pleases, Since heās favorite gladiator is fighting the champion it only makes sense for them fight one on one.The audience takes a second to process what he said and the entire underground coloseum is erupted by loud cheers from the audience signaling for a one on one fight,The summoners and You are both shocked and worried now. Kengo protested and the summoners explained your current condition to Claude.
Kengo: Hey, Whattdya mean heās gonna Macan alone?,No way im letting him fight him on his own.
Shiro:Guild Master Claude, I wanted to inform you that,..Harumo has lost his memories,Ā
Claude: Haha!,Splendid this will make the fight much worth to watch,Kengo i would you to leave the arena and let him fight.
Kengo:As if im going to listen to you,No way!,Weāre gonna to di this together, Right partner?.
Harumo: Yeah!.
Audience:*BOOING*
The entire arena is filled by the boos and disappointment from their voices,Wanting the fight to be a one-on one. Some are even throwing their snacks at them
Andvari:WHOAH!,.....Hey watch it you idiot,Ā
Audience member:Hey do you have something heavy to throw,Iāll pay you a thousand coins if you do.
Andvari: Here you go, A dumbell that will be a thousand coins.....Heheh looks like im gonna make a profit after all.
Ā Andvari who happens to be selling there, Sparked his eyes and make a grin that shows his greedyness,Takes the opportunity to make a profit, By selling snacks but, not as consumables,Rather,Throwable objects to throw at the arena.
You are stuck in a situation where you either ask Kengo to let him fight on your own, or Protest. However.
Macan:*ROARS*
Everyone falls in silence from the roar and Macan,
Macan: Let them fight me, That just means more food for me, Hey Claude let them fight,Its been a while since i have good meal.
Claude took a second to think,Squinting his eyes a looking directly at the gladiators,And
Claude:HAHAHA!, I will allow this,Go Macan feast on your prey,Make this a spectactular bout,A fight to remember in history.
Harumo:Phew,Ā
Kengo: All right then.
Taurus Maske: Alrighty then,....BEGIN!.
As soon as Taurus signaled it to begin,Macan quickly rushed in,Pouncing at you directly as the main dish,
Macan: Im going to devour you,
Harumo:Whoah!,
You tumbled away from him, As if your muscles are on auto-pilot, Macan tried pouncing at you again, But
Kengo:RARGH!,
A punch landed on Macanās cheek followed by a sweep kick to Macanās abdomen, Saving you in the process.
Harumo:Thanks Kengo,
Kengo:Donāt let up,Watch out!,
Macan: RAAAA!,
Macan landed a punch at your stomach,With the force from his punch so great, it throws you at the corner of the arenaās cage covering.
Kengo:Harumo!,
Taurus Maske: Oh!, Thats a punch i donāt want to get,
Harumo: *Gasping for air*
With the impact so strong,It hurts your back and immediately gasping for air almost to the point were you are about to puke.
Kengo delivers a series of combos to Macan followed by the use of his sacred aritfact,While Macan is dodging them and punched Kengo at the face,Throwing him in a corner.
Kengo:Hrgh!,
Harumo: K-Ke..ngo...
You look at Kengo down to his knees while Macan is waiking towards him like a tiger about to it his prey, When you look at him,Your mind flashes an image of you saving someone, You were there when you mutter something,leading to an appearance of a sword in your hands, You could hear it very clearly and the image is starting to become much more clearer in your mind, Youāre starting to remember something and that is.
Harumo:Role of the Wanderer, Rule of Rending,Thou who art nameless in this world and powerless to claim this world...Deceive the world,hinder the world,and by thy false name,manifest in this closed domain! Avatar of the Serpentās tail,severed by the Wanderer!, Bare thy Rule of Rending and cleave all power and authority!
Harumo:Engrame mine name unto thee and come forth! BOUNDLESS TAIL!
A bright light engulfed the entire arena and with that,Youāre holding somethingĀ in your right hand.......Ā
Harumo: A sword?!.
Shiro: Harumo...
Kengo: Allright partner youāre back,
Harumo:This? is my Sacred Artifact?, All right then.Ā
Weapon on hand,you have found a way to beat Macan and charged at him,Swinging it to his body and youāve manage to cut him.
Macan:*Groans* Not bad,
Macan grins at you when you slashed him and the beast is starting to get more wild as time flies by,Ā
Horkeu Kamui: My hero....
Horkeu Kamui had just arrived at the coloseum only to be shocked by you fighting Macan the number one ranker,Horkeu stands in bewilderment and watches your fight closely...
Kengo:Hey donāt forget about me idiot.
Kengo who has recovered from the blunt of Macanās attack delivers heavy combos at Macan who has his back turned around,Ā
{Punching and kicking sounds}
Macan: RAgh!Ā
Macan is now fighting two powerful gladiators and he grins in delight and ecstacy to see his food getting more tender and juicier by every second the match goes on. Macan then.
Macan: Ahhh!, I canāt take it and longer!,AHHHHHH!.
Macanās loincloth started glowing green signaling both of you that his activating his sacred artifact,You instinctively backed away from him and shouted at Kengo to get away, However...
Macan:AHHHHHH! Mad Tiger!,Harimau Gila!,Uraghhh!.
Heās eyes are much more greener than they were and his body grown much more bigger than it was,The crowd cheered in furocity as the summoners watch from Claudeās area,They cheered more loudly to you both, Even the rankers are bewildered as well,Because this is the first time they saw Macan activating his Sacred Artifact during a match, The commentator is yelling in astonishment for the unexpected development of this match. Kengo activates his sacred artifact and you are preparing for Macanās attacks. But..
Macan: Uraagghhhh!
Harumo: AHHH!.
Youāre body recieved hard punches from Macan,However this punches are much more harder than they were before. You used your sword to block the punches however with the force from his punches your guard was shattered,Ā
Kengo:HARUMO!
Macan:RAAAAGH!
You were hit by a punch at the face that feels like a train ran you over and by the force of it you flew directly at the cage wall surrounding the arena. And brought down to your knees gasping for air, It feels like your lungs are struggling to properly distribute the oxygen in your body.
Kengo: URAAAGH! TAKE THIS YOU BASTARD!.
Kengo delivered hard blown combos at Macan filled with rage, Macan then countered his attacks followed by wild punches.
Kengo and Macan: RAAAAGGGGHHH!.
A bloody slugfest is occuring in the arena and the crowd couldnāt be more happier to see such a display of strength. The summoners however are worried for Kengo as they see their friend getting covered in blood and Harumo is trying to recover from the damage he accumelated. In this moment right now Macan has the advantage,Ā
Shiro: Kengo.....Please.....
Ryota:KENGO!.
Toji: Stop this match now!, Heās gonna kill Takabushi.!
Claude: I will not ! This is the climax of every bout,This is the moment all gladiators derive pleasure from,I will not let this match stop until one is left standing.
Toji:Why you..
Moritaka:Toji calm yourself,Kengo wouldnāt want this stop either, You have to believe in Kengo right now, Heāāl survive.
Toji:*GRITS HEāS TEETH*
Macan with his overpowering strikes he smashes Kengoās guard and delivered a punch to the face,Beating him down and he;s body is battered and covered in blood.You watch in horror as you see your friend beat down and about to get eaten. Macan has reach the full ecstacy of a beast and is now unable to control himself from grabbing Kengo and about to bite him. However....
LET....HIM.....GOOOOOO!.
By the words shouted by you. Horkeu Kamui is shocked in belief because the sword on his side started shaking and being pulled from the sheath. And a bright glow emerged from both your swords,Ā
Horkeu Kamui: The ice cleaving blade! It wants to go its master!.
Without hesitation he pulls the sword out of its sheath and it quickly sprang into action and flew towards you, leaving a cold air from its path.
Harumo: A-another sword!?
Everyone is surprise from the sudden apearance followed by a shout from Horkeu sayingĀ
Horkeu kamui: My Hero!, The ice cleaving blade will aid you,Use it now!.
Claude and the summoners are surprised by the sudden development aswell as the rankers and Kengo too,Macan however is now being controlled by his instincts to devour his prey and without hesitation you took the sword and now your other sword has a companion to aid you in battle,Both of your swords glowed in different colors,But your own sword is glowing with the colors of the rainbow,Ā
Harumo: Whoah...Allright youāre going down Macan!.
The crowd cheers you on,and without hesitation you rushed towards Macan,He readies himself for the attacks,But your attacks cut him and made him bleed. You attack him in a 2 hit style combo and slashing him on every part on his body you could find..But Macan doesnāt let up,he immediately counters your attacks, however the ice blade with its power to froze anything instantly freezes Macanās arm slowing his movements giving you a better chance to attack him,and you did,Macan appears to be weakening from your attacks aswell as the punches he recieved from Kengo who is layed down on the arena with his eyes still open,seeing you fight like a madman.
Kengo: Nice one...Partner...
Harumo:Take this!.
Youāre about to deliver the finishing slash only to be stopped by the sudden charging from Macan,
Harumo:What the..
Kengo: NO!, HARUMO!.
Macan grabs you both on your arms unabling you from using your twin swords to cut free from his grab. Macan grabs you tightly with both of his hands and about to devour you alive.
Harumo:AHH!.
.
.
.
.
.
With all hope seems lost,Your friends watched in horror as they watch you about to get devoured,Claudeās face turned into a face like they seen someone very precious to them get killed infront of them, Everyone is shocked in silence,The rankers are tried to rush towards the arena to stop him but they wonāt be able to make it,Ā Horkeu is filled by rage and quickly dashes towards the arena to strike him,However he wonāt be able to make it.
Horkeu Kamui:MY HERO! NOOO!
Summoners:HARUMO!!!!
Everything you see started to move very slowly and as you looked around you see infront of you Macanās mouth wide open and you can see the sharp fangs and teeth. You watched it happen slowly thinking how to free yourself.
Harumo: Is..is this the end?.
You were about to get eaten without even having your memories returned to you and being with the friends whom are helping you, Are about to be forgoten. BUT....
Kengo: Role of the Barbarian!,Rule of Infinitude! Engrave thy name Kengo Takabushi unto thee. GEANT BASHER!.
Lighting appeared around Kengo wrapping his entire body full of electricity. And without a moments notice he sprang towards Macan kicking him in the face,With force from it so hard,Macan drop his grip of you and flew all the way the cage wall and almost to the brink of breaking.Ā
Kengo:Partner!, Hey!, Hold on!.Ā
Harumo:Ken...go...
After you muttered his name you fell on his hands and fall into a state of unconsciencess,
Kengo:HARUMO!.
He holds you dearly in his arms as you sleep, Macan however is not done yet and stands himself up and ready to pounce at your battered body,However Kengo is really mad,
Kengo:RAAAAAAAAA!.
Rage and fury fill his body,pulling no hesitation in his attacks,He delivered devastating attacks at Macan almost to the point of dead, He over and over punches and kicks Macan everywhere in his body due to the electricity in his body making his attacks sting like crazy. Everyone watches the slughter happen in their eyes and are quite shocked in excitement as the match continues on.
Macan:URAAAGGHHH!.
Kengo:RAAAAAAAAAA!.
The bloody exchanges of blows fills the arena with blood and sweat fom the devasting slugfest,And as time goes on Macan gradually weakens and Kengo seizes the opportunity to deliver the final blow..Ā
Kengo: THIS IS FOR ME!
He punched Macan at his left cheek. Followed byĀ
Kengo: AND THIS IS FOR MY HARUMO!
He delivers the reassuring final blow of his life the most powerful attack he has ever delivered at an opponent.Ā
Kengo:RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
He activated his sacred artifact and punched Macanās right cheek,flying him towards the cage wall,with the force so great the cage wall broke and Macan landed at the audience knocked out...
Silence fills the entire underground coloseum for the first time,everyone even the guild master as well as heās butler Snow and the rankers but most especially the summoners,Everyone are silent shut from the upcome and then a few seconds to process everything.
Everyone:*CHEERING LOUDLY*
Shiro: Holy mother of......They did it!.
Ryota: Yey!,, Both of them did it!Ā
Moritaka: My word, This is incredible,
Toji: I never knew Takabushi have that much power.
Claude:HAHAHA!, SPLENDID! AMAZING! This the fight that will go down in history. HAHAHAHAH!
Ryota:Guys come on!, Lets go!
Shiro:Right with you.
Moritaka:Wait for me you two..
Toji:...
[ARENA}
Horkeu Kamui:My Hero..
Horkeu arrived at the arena and sees Kengo holding you with his hands at the back of your head,
Kengo:Hey partner....We..did..it..
Kengoās body has recieved massive amounts of damage,almost to the brink of unconsciousness.Ā
Horkeu Kamui: Thank you Kengo Takabushi,you have saved my hero,im very grateful.
Kengo: Hey Horkeu..Get him to the infirmary quickly...
Those were the words he spoke before faliing in a state of unconsciousness andĀ
Horkeu Kamui:What the..
Horkeu is shocked and flabbergasted by the sight he is seeing infront of him..
Horkeu Kamui: Donāt worry,Kengo Iāālā make sure to bring him to the medical staff....

Horkeu Kamui: Hold on you two.

ā and you say you are broken, but broken mirrors like you create the most beautiful patterns of light. ā (from Lelouch)
sentence prompts ā Ā poetry starters
Pure silence. Pregnant and laden with death. Purple rims the lower lids of her eyes; still half-open even in her temporary lull; even as trembling fingers that are not hers, hers are limp and slack and rampant rivers with blood, move to close them, she will not move. She, the portrait of suffering. She, the portrait of tragedy. She, the lonely one. She, who will not move, who has once again offered her body as a shield at the beginning primarily for the sake of ambition..now, the purpose convoluted, conflicting.
She will not hear him race to give her privacy. Her body laden with bullet holes and shrapnel sticking like spears out of her chest, her arms, her legs, she will not hear them clamoring down the hall. She will not hear Lelouch and his hitched breathing at the actions taken to save him once more.Ā
After all they are selfish reasons, right? From the witch who was never given an option or taste of happiness in the first placeā¦for the witch who has only known suffering, trauma and ruinā¦.for the witch who wavers between her wish and the strange resurgence of emotions brought about by this accumulation of time andĀ ācontractā.
Blood smears her entire mouth; gloved hands which surely prided themselves on being clean on the outside dotting them away yet not without tremors. Her immortality is generally a secret. The only person who knows otherwise is an enemy, Ā a lost piece that was once a friend. The presence trods on, and in death she almost looks peaceful, as if the woman does not quite want to leave. There is a faint half-smile of relief on her bloodied mouth; her darkening eyelids. Foolish boy turned man, you are safe, I will protect you ā foolish, selfish boy for some reason Iāll āā¦ā¦.Iāllā¦..yoāā
bang,
bang,
bang.
The white pallor of death covers her as if in a snowy shroud. The colorless snow, the silenced screams, the weight of all things and all deaths, all rebirths, all fruitless at best. There is no death, only the death of her heart, the death of any hope of joyā¦has been all sheās ever known.
So her body is easy to discard. For each time the vain hope that this death will be her ālastā becomes fainter; and even as the drumming in her dead ears begins to pulse with the sound of mixed messages. Her true name and her alias, both in tandem. Desperately, desperately, a plead from the world she does not and has never belonged to ā
ā yet one man demands her return.
The only thing that belongs to her is silence, the penultimate suffering without end. The future that surely will be without happinessā¦the attachments that will leave her.
It is futile.
It is meaningless.
Her consciousness begs as if from a distance, she hears the faint pump of her heart as trembling hands tend to the largest piece of shrapnel which pierced the lifeless, faded organ in her breast. The bullet in her forehead; the holes in her legs..the caked and congealing blood in her beautiful, beautiful hair. I have died far worse, you know, she almost wishes to comfort him, the lost prince, the boy turned man who could become a King if he truly doesnāt stop.. and what will she do, knowing that beneath it he is still just a boy, and all the while a man grown?
When she coughs, it is an upheaval of blood and phlegm; her dull eyes flitting everywhere and nowhere unaware of hands grasping her scratched and bruised face to keep her to him. āLelā¦..ā
Hoarse, her throat was not spared. It is perhaps one of the more violent deaths she has paid to save him, hence why she is taking so long. Those proud eyes are not proud now. They are frightened, and there is a pain in them she has never seen in anyone beforeā¦for herself? Or is that an illusion? A mirage of witnessing pity? Would Lelouch pity her? Why is there no disgust in his face?
You ought to be disgusted. I am not human. For almost a thousand years I have not been human, and I will never be human. I am every bad thing you have said about me, and every bad thing the world has condemned me for long before you will if ever, know the story of that name only you in this world will know ā-
Dizzily, and with blood spilling from the corners of her lips as she struggles to speak; C.C. remarks dazedly, āButā¦amā¦.already deadā¦. long agoā¦.too longā¦.muchā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦.whereā¦. whereā¦thisā¦areā¦.you?ā For once her eyes are not bright when she finally sees his face in blurred contrasts. They are dull and almost lifeless; there is no hidden tenderness or fondness, or teasing, or coldness, the capacity for mercy and cruelty in the unfathomably complicated woman named C.C.
As he steadily removes the shrapnel; the bullets are slowly, painfully closing, and each little beat of regeneration sounds like a scream she has long been robbed of. After all, it was never in her fate to know the word āhappyā or āpeaceā. Much less even be at peace, the former cadaver feels the acute pain of death and cannot keep her eyes open, the undead, the living corpseā¦.yes, all names she would hurt herself with. She has been an open, gushing wound ever since she was bornā¦hasnāt she? Hasnāt she?
He talks about something, and with blurred hearing, the pain is so much, oh, Father, you who have abandoned me! Oh world, you who never let me live!
āā¦.?ā
Her voice was sleepy and tight with pain that she couldnāt properly articulate the words,a dead, hollow rasp, for as her body resurrects, her soul must find a way to resurrect itself back into the body.
ā Youā¦ā¦yesā¦.ā She begins, a napkin dabs at her steadily decreasing flow of blood in her mouth; still sticky in her throat.
Ā ā I ā¦notā¦..hear you Lelā¦ouchā¦ā¦but youāre fine so..? Ahā¦.I s-suppose Ā if Iām dead then you liveā¦thatās the way of itā¦..but youāre a fo-foolā¦.been deadā¦long t-timeā¦..ugly isnāt it?āĀ
Her eyes shutter in slurred vulnerability, so vulnerable she does not caution her words; the pain borderline making her delirious as she hears his words again and her bloodied head sags into his lap, lolling backwards if not for his hands to steady it. Another tremor, the back was still damp with bloodā¦
āā¦.You sayā¦.strā¦strange things to-to m-m-meā¦you ā¦d-donāt know h-how to ch-charm wo-womenā¦.ā A hitched series of gasps, his hand behind her back as she struggled to breathe.
The heartbreaking words escape with a smile on her half-conscious features, contradictory to her words, she looked oddly lovely in a halo of blood.
āButā¦.Iād like to hear mā¦y nameā¦ā¦ā¦..agaā¦inā¦ā¦ā¦.you sound likeā¦.likā¦.ā Her eyes shutter; gripping his hand hard to cope with the painfully slow regeneration.
Like you care about me, you who lies to everyone but meā¦
This death would take time to recover from, heād think, or try to compartmentalize the sheer trauma of her dying on him again. It was how he worked through the sheer strength of his mind.
For C.C. however, she had died long before she had ever met the exiled Prince. So whyā¦.would he say such a thingā¦.. why would he delude himself into humanizing and personalizing nothing more than a ghost? Was it loneliness? Or did he truly cherish her?
And if he did cherish her in the tender, almost aching way heād pleaded her name as she had diedā¦..then how should she proceedā¦how frustratingā¦..
āHowā¦.veryā¦.strangeā¦..Lelā¦ā¦ā¦..you say strange thiā¦ā¦ā¦ngsā¦ā¦ā¦ā A cough as she tries to laugh; lime hair spilling around the floor in a reddened sheet, coughing more as he demands her not to speak.
The Grey Witch falls once again into the cradle of silence; eyes peacefully closed despite the horror of the hallway she had created with her death. Her face, which was still caked in bloodied hair and dried crimson was torn between a faintly broken smile and a wistful longing to hear the cherishing way a person had said her nameā¦at last it was something true.
All the while the halls were silent, as far as she smiled like one who was dead; covered in wounds; the items and bullets which caused her demise pooling in bloodied gaps around their closely knit bodiesā¦and all the while, she was unaware that he had not let her go. But C.C. would never know this, would sheā¦?
Unaware that one man trembled all the while he held her, perhaps recalling the girlish, hopeful voice of Narita, echoing enough to fill a graveyardā¦haunting in how it had come full circle..
ā Can you say it? Say it againā¦like you treasure it in your heartļæ½ļæ½ļæ½? ā

How to Write a Novel: Ā Tips For Visual Thinkers.
1. Ā Plotting is your friend.
This is basically a must for all writers (or at least, it makes our job significantly easier/less time consuming/less likely to make us want to rip our hair out by the roots), but visual thinkers tend to be great at plotting. Ā Thereās something about a visible outline that can be inexplicably pleasing to us, and there are so many great ways to go about it. Ā Here are a few examples:Ā
The Three-Act Structure
This one is one of the simplest: Ā itās divided into the tried-and-true three acts, or parts, a la William Shakespeare, and includes a basic synopsis of what happens in each. Ā Itās simple, itās familiar, itās easy to add to, and it getās the job done.Ā
It starts with Act I -- i.e. the set-up, or establishing the status quo -- which is usually best if itās the shortest act, as it tends to bore audiences quickly. Ā This leads to Act II, typically the longest, which Ā introduces the disruptor and shows how characters deal with it, and is sandwiched by Act III (the resolution.) Ā
The Chapter-by-Chapter
This is the one I use the most. Ā It allows you to elucidate on the goings on of your novel in greater detail than the quintessential three act synopsis generally could, fully mapping out your manuscript one chapter at a time. Ā The descriptions can be as simple or as elaborate as you need them to be, and can be added to or edited throughout the progression of your novel.
Can easily be added to/combined with the three-act structure.
The Character Arc(s)
This isnāt one that Iāve used a lot, but it can be a lot of fun, particularly for voice-driven/literary works: Ā instead on focusing on the events of the plot, this one centralizes predominantly around the arc of your main character/characters. Ā As with its plot-driven predecessors, it can be in point-by-point/chapter-by-chapter format, and is a great way to map out character development. Ā
The Tent Moments
ByĀ ātent moments,ā I mean the moments that hold up the foundation (i.e. the plot) of the novel, in the way that poles and wires hold up a tent. Ā This one builds off of the most prevalent moments of the novel -- the oneās youāre righting the story around -- and is great for writers that want to cut straight to the action. Ā Write them out in bullet points, and plan the rest of the novel around them.
The Mind Map
This oneās a lot of fun, and as an artist, I should probably start to use it more. Ā It allows you to plot out your novel the way you would a family tree, using doodles, illustrations, and symbols to your heartās content. Ā Hereās a link to how to create basic mind maps on YouTube.
2. Ā āShow donāt tellā is probably your strong suit.
If youāre a visual thinker, your scenes are probably at least partially originally construed as movie scenes in your head. Ā This can be a good thing, so long as you can harness a little of that mental cinematography and make your readers visualize the scenes the way you do.
A lot of published authors have a real big problem with giving laundry lists of character traits rather than allowing me to just see for myself. Ā Maybe Iām spoiled by the admittedly copious amounts of fanfiction I indulge in, where the writer blissfully assumes that I know the characters already and letās the personalities and visuals do the talking. Ā Either way, the pervasive ātellingā approach does get tedious.
Hereās a hypothetical example. Ā Letās say you wanted to describe a big, tough, scary guy, who your main character is afraid of. Ā TheĀ ātellā approach might go something like this:
Tommy was walking along when he was approached by a big, tough, scary guy who looked sort of angry.
āHey, kid,ā said the guy. Ā āWhere are you going?ā
āIām going to a friendās house,ā Tommy replied. Ā
I know, right? Ā This is Boring with a capitalĀ āB.ā Ā
On the other hand, letās check out theĀ āshowā approach:
The man lumbered towards Tommy, shaved head pink and glistening in the late afternoon sun. Ā His beady eyes glinted predatorily beneath the thick, angry bushes of his brows.
āHey, kid,ā the man grunted, beefy arms folded over his pot belly. Ā āWhere are you going?āĀ
āIām going to a friendās house,ā Tommy replied, hoping the man didnāt know that he was ditching school.
See how much better that is? Ā We donāt need to be told the man is big, tough, and scary looking because the narrative shows us, and draws the reader a lot more in the process. Ā
This goes for scene building, too. Ā For example:Ā
Exhibit A:
Tyrone stepped out onto his balcony. Ā It was a beautiful night.
Lame. Ā
Exhibit B:Ā
Tyrone stepped out onto his balcony, looking up at the inky abyss of the night sky, dotted with countless stars and illuminated by the buttery white glow of the full moon.
Much better.
3. Ā But conversely, know when to tell.
A book without any atmosphere or vivid, transformative descriptors tends to be, by and large, a dry and boring hunk of paper. Ā That said, know when youāre showing the reader a little too much.
Too many descriptors will make your book overflow with purple prose, and likely become a pretentious read that no one wants to bother with.
So when do youĀ ātellā instead ofĀ āshow?ā Ā Well, for starters, when youāre transitioning from one scene to the next.
For example:
As the second hand of the clock sluggishly ticked along, the sky ever-so-slowly transitioning from cerulean, to lilac, to peachy sunset. Ā Finally, it became inky black, the moon rising above the horizon and stars appearing by the time Lakisha got home.
These kind of transitions should be generally pretty immemorable, so if yours look like this you may want to revise.
Day turned into evening by the time Lakisha got home.Ā
See? Ā Itās that simple.
Another example is redundant descriptions: Ā if you show the fudge out of a character when he/she/they are first introduced and create an impression that sticks with the reader, you probably donāt have to do it again. Ā
You can emphasize features that stand out about the character (i.e. Miloās huge, owline eyes illuminated eerily in the dark) but the reader probably doesnāt need a laundry list of the characterās physical attributes every other sentence. Ā Just call the character by name, and for Godās sake, stay away from epithets: Ā the blond man. Ā The taller woman. Ā The angel. Ā Just, no. Ā If the reader is aware of the characterās name, just say it, or rework the sentence.Ā
All that said, it is important to instill a good mental image of your characters right off the bat.
Which brings us to my next point...
4. Ā Master the art of character descriptions.
Visual thinkers tend to have a difficult time with character descriptions, because most of the time, they tend to envision their characters as played their favorite actors, or as looking like characters from their favorite movies or TV shows.
Thatās why youāll occasionally see characters popping up who are described as looking like, say, Chris Evans. Ā
Itās a personal pet peeve of mine, because A) what if the reader has never seen Chris Evans? Ā Granted, theyād probably have to be living on Mars, but you get the picture: Ā you donāt want your readers to have to Google the celebrity youāre thirsting after in order for them to envision your character. Ā B) Itās just plain lazy, and C) virtually everyone will know that the reason you made this character look like Chris Evans is because you want to bang Chris Evans. Ā
Not that thatās bad or anything, but is that really what you want to be remembered for?
Now, Iām not saying donāt envision your characters as famous attractive people -- hell, thatās one of the paramount joys of being a writer. Ā But soās describing people! Ā Describing characters is a lot of fun, draws in the reader, and really brings your character to life.
So whatās the solution? Ā If you want your character to look like Chris Evans, describe Chris Evans.
Hereās an example of what Iām talking about:
Exhibit A:
The guy got out of the car to make sure Carlos was alright, and holy cow, he looked just like Dean Winchester!
No bueno. Ā Besides the fact that Iām channeling the writing style of 50 Shades of Grey a little here, everyone who reads this is going to process that youāre basically writing Supernatural fanfiction. Ā That, or theyāll have to Google who Dean Winchester is, which, again, is no good.
Exhibit B: Ā
The guy got out of the car to make sure Carlos was alright, his short, caramel blond hair stirring in the chilly wind and a smattering of freckles across the bridge of his nose. Ā His eyes were wide with concern, and as he approached, Carlos could see that they were gold-tinged, peridot green in the late afternoon sun.
Also note that Iām keeping the description a little vague here; Ā Iām doing this for two reasons, the first of which being that, in general, youāre not going to want to describe your characters down to the last detail. Ā Trust me. Ā Itās boring, and your readers are much more likely to become enamored with a well-written personality than they are a vacant sex doll. Ā Next, by keeping the description a little vague, I effectively manage to channel a Dean Winchester-esque character without literally writing about Dean Winchester.
Letās try another example:Ā
Exhibit A:
Charlotteās boyfriend looked just like Idris Elba.Ā
Exhibit B: Ā
Charlotteās boyfriend was a stunning man, eyes pensive pools of dark brown amber and a smile so perfect that it could make you think he was deliciously prejudiced in your favor. Ā His skin was dark copper, textured black hair gray at the temples, and he filled out a suit like no other.
Okay, that one may have been because I just really wanted to describe Idris Elba, but you get the point: Ā itās more engaging for the reader to be able to imagine your character instead of mentally inserting some sexy fictional character or actor, however beloved they may be.
So donāt skimp on the descriptions!
5. Ā Donāt be afraid to find inspiration in other media!
A lot of older people recommend ditching TV completely in order to improve creativity and become a better writer. Ā Personally, if youāll pardon my French, I think this is bombastic horseshit. Ā
TV and cinema are artistic mediums the same way anything else is. Ā Moreover, the sheer amount of fanart and fanfiction -- some of which is legitimately better than most published content -- is proof to me that you can derive inspiration from these mediums as much as anything else.
The trick is to watch media that inspires you. Ā Iām not going to sayĀ āgood mediaā because that, in and of itself, is subjective. Ā I, for example, think Supernatural is a fucking masterpiece of intertextual postmodernism and amazing characterization, whereas someone else might think itās a hot mess of campy special effects and rambling plotlines. Ā Conversely, one of my best friends lovesĀ Twilight, both the movies and the books, which, Iām going to confess, I donāt get at all. Ā But it doesnāt matter that it isnāt good to me so long as itās good to her. Ā Ā
So watch what inspires you. Ā Consume any whatever movies, books, and shows youāre enthusiastic about, figure out what you love most about them, and apply that to your writing. Ā Chances are, readers will find your enthusiasm infectious.
As a disclaimer, this is not to say you get a free pass from reading: Ā Iāve never met a good writer who didnāt read voraciously. Ā If youāre concerned that you canāt fall in love with books the way you used to (which, sadly, is a common phenomenon) fear not: Ā I grappled with that problem after I started college, and Iāll be posting an article shortly on how to fall back in love reading.
So in the meanwhile, be sure to follow my blog, and stay tuned for future content!
(This one goes out to my friend, beta reader, and fellow writer @megpieeee, who is a tremendous visual thinker and whose books will make amazing movies someday.)
